Looks to be a favourites night at Shepparton? Ryan Phelan takes a look at the 8-race card.
R1 – 5:57pm – Shepparton Gold Cup 11/1/2025 Pace – 2190m
7 – Silver Domino
4 – Amber Alert
11 – Olly Odd Potts
9 – Very Tempting

On a card where it was hard to find value, Silver Domino shapes as a good chance as one of the few horses that isn’t a favourite. He had no luck whatsoever last start and now you get the most in-form driver in James Herbertson jumping aboard. Despite there being speed in his inside, I expect an aggressive drive to look for the top.
BACK: 7 Silver Domino – 1 Unit (win)

R6 – 8:45pm – Food Vans @ The Gold Cup Trot – 1690m
5 – Fremarkstilly
4 – You No Ill Be Late
6 – Yankee Lover
2 – Night Sky
Fremarkstilly is a lovely progressive trotting mare who has gone to another level since joining trainer Tyrone Abela. Her most recent win at Melton she was equal amounts toughness and speed and ran good time. This looks easier an easier assignment to find the lead and prove too good. No spoil with the price but is an anchor in the Quaddie and multis.
BACK: 6/5 Fremarkstilly – 7/4 Settlethebill 2 Units (win all-up)
6/5 Fremarkstilly – 8/1 Ronnie The Hammer 2 Units (win all-up)
6/5 Fremarkstilly – 7/4 Settlethebill – 8/1 Ronnie The Hammer 1 Unit (win all-up)
(*Could also add R2/4 Rocknlena to multi)
R7 – 9:19pm – Thank You Sponsors Of The Gold Cup Meeting Trot – 2190m
4 – Settle The Bill
7 – Lizzies Son
1 – Kalarney Prince
2 – Abbie
Settle The Bill has been a different horse since joining the Damien Wilson stable registering two super impressive wins by big margins. This race doesn’t present as any more challenging than what she’s faced there so I expect her to continue on her winning way.
BACK: 6/5 Fremarkstilly – 7/4 Settlethebill 2 Units (win all-up)
7/4 Settle The Bill – 8/1 Ronnie The Hammer 2 Units (win all-up)
6/5 Fremarkstilly – 7/4 Settlethebill – 8/1 Ronnie The Hammer 1 Unit (win all-up)
R8 – 9:53pm – See You All AT The Gold Cup Pace Pace – 1690m
1 – Ronnie The Hammer
6 – Beta Than Love
3 – Leavemeout
4 – Arnies Army
Ronnie The Hammer picks himself here on the back of some impressive efforts in the Vicbred Platinum series clashing with the smart Captain Perfect. This is a sharp drop in grade and has the speed to lead all the way.
BACK: 6/5 Fremarkstilly – 8/1 Ronnie The Hammer 2 Units (win all-up)
7/4 Settle The Bill – 8/1 Ronnie The Hammer 2 Units (win all-up)
